  • 词义辨析
  • in front of, ahead of
  • ahead of和in front of都可表示“在…前面”，指具体的或比喻的空间时，两者都可使用；指时间时，只可使用ahead of。例如：
    He was running 50 meters ahead of〔before〕 me.他跑在我前面50米。
    At that moment two girls passed in front of me.那时有两个姑娘在我面前经过。
    They say there is a great future ahead of me.他们说我有远大的前程。
    You have a splendid life in front of you.你有大好的前程。
  • in front of, in the front of
  • 这两个短语都可译为“在…的前面”,它们之间的区别是:前者主要指在某物体外面的前面,即两者是分开的; 而后者则指在某物体内部的前面,即两者是包容的。试比较:
    He's sitting in front of the car with the driver.
    他跟司机坐在车子的前面。 (两人在车外)
    He's sitting in the front of the car with the driver.
    他跟司机坐在车子的前面。 (两人在车里)
  • come to the front, go to the front
  • 这两个短语意思不同:前者的意思是“露头角”或“显赫起来”; 后者的意思是“上前线”。试比较:
    Brooks has come to the front recently.
    布鲁克斯最近吃香起来了。
    Our troops have gone to the front.
    我们的部队已开赴前线。
